Yeah, I really think it's pretty unrealistic to think they're doing this in the actual order that we placed our preorders.   I'm another who ordered fairly early and haven't heard a thing yet.

Instinct and anecdotal evidence here strongly suggest that theory is out the window already.  Now, whatever order they are doing this in... is anybody's guess.  I'm sure they're swamped and working overtime to stay on top of everything today, I can only imagine the hassles they're facing to get this going.

It would be nice, however if those of us who ordered the download would actually be able to download sometime before the shipped boxes arrive...
